The 29,000-capacity gathering in a forest near Skanderborg repeated last year’s experiment of stretching to five days and all five sold out, another reason for the record-breaking binge of vodka and OJ.

The event was originally known as Skanderborg Festival, but with the passing of time – and the drinking of several screwdrivers – it’s adopted its nickname of “Smukfest,” which loosely translates as “happy fest.”

On the first day the crowd waiting for the party to start was so large that the gate staff fitted 7,000 wristbands in an hour.

The site has been improved and re-configured since last year, which is problematic because of the several hundred trees on it, and this year’s festival also saw the debut of Smukfest’s Web-based Festival TV.

The station webcasts news and features from all over the site, thereby affording the crowd the opportunity to watch themselves getting drunk on television.
